Hello everybody...

Does anybody know how to program in LabTalk moving the columns in a workshet? I need the same action as menu command "Column -> Move to First/Last".

Thanks a lot in advance.

These scripts will move the third column of the active worksheet to the beginning or end...

# Move to First
%A=wks.col3.name$; // get the name of column 3
wo -i 0; // insert a column at the beginning
copy col(4) col(1); // copy contents of column 4 (was col 3) to the first column
del col(4); // delete column 4
wo -n 1 %A; // rename the first column

# Move to Last
%A=wks.col3.name$; // get the name of column 3
wo -i wks.ncols; // add a column at the end
copy col(3) wcol(wks.ncols); // copy contents of column 3 to the last column
del col(3); // delete column 3
wo -n wks.ncols %A; // rename the last column

Hope that helps.
